GoodDayAug 20, 2015: There are people who think they are wealthy because they have an expensive house and travel abroad for exotic holidays. If they have large mortgage and credit card balances that they find difficult to reduce, then their thought of being wealthy is far from the truth. Others measure their status by their ability to pay their bills. Who do you think is better off?

May 10, 2015: We wish you a warm and happy Mother's Day. It's a fantastic day to acknowledge the celebration of motherhood and selfless contributions of mothers to our birth, growth and development. We all know that our moms do a thankless job. So let us seize this opportunity to thank them wholeheartedly.

Nov 02, 2014: It is time to reset our household clocks and watches to get that extra hour on Sunday morning. We will get an extra hour of Sunday morning sleep on Nov 2, because of the time change that rolls our clocks back an hour every fall.

Oct 31,2014: We wish you a Happy Halloween. Hope you have a wonderful time at tonight's Halloween party dressed in fabulous yet scary costumes. Last night we filled our orange colored pumpkin bucket with colorful candies. Kids love them :).

Oct 13, 2014: Wish you all a Happy Columbus Day. We Americans celebrate this day to mark the anniversary of Christopher Columbus's arrival in the Americas, on October 21, 1492. Wow! It's over five hundred years since that discovery :). Thanks to Columbus else Americas would have remained utterly unknown to the world.

Sep 24, 2014: At present we are debt free. It's a great feeling to have no financial debts. In fact it's said that the first step to save is to get rid of our debts. We agree.

Your lifestyle can siphon off cash faster than the rate at which you earn it. More so if you lead a fast life where you are conscious of status symbols, social image and can spare no time to manage your finances. Such a life puts one in a perennial race to update stuff to keep up with the latest trends. The result is debt, debt and more debt. Credit card debt, car loans, housing mortgage, student loan(s), insurance payments and more. Consequently you are weighed down by a mountain of debt which can suck fun out of life.

Sep 22, 2014: We wish you a joyful Fall ahead :). According to the U.S. Naval Observatory, officially it began at 10:29 p.m. EDT during the autumnal equinox, when the sun crossed directly over the Earth's equator and both day and night were about equal. Fall will last three months and end on December 20th.

Sep 01, 2014: We wish you a wonderful Labor Day. Hope your long weekend went well :). Ours was spent in de-cluttering our household. This year our focus has been to reduce consumption, so we refrained from buying stuff through "Labor Day Sale" promotions. It feels great to get rid of stuff!
